Remove the menu bar and toolbar from gvim

I wanted to reclaim some real estate from the top of my gvim screen. Here's a couple lines for the .vimrc or .gvimrc:

" Remove menu bar
set guioptions-=m

" Remove toolbar
set guioptions-=T

Still helpful, thanks. I couldn't find this information in the vim documentation (it only mentions icons or text for the toolbar).
